I am humbled by your feedback -THANK YOU

During the pre-launch of the book "From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom", i was circulating copies of the book to some renowned personalities and known contacts in my network so that i could get some feedback and reviews. The response was overwhelming. 
But what has truly humbled me is the response from all those "unknown" and "young" readers who are not obliged to send me any review comments, whom i do not know and who have no reason to write an email to me.

Dreams do come true... and this was one dream which i had been chasing for some time - launch of my maiden book. It has been more than 3 years since i started on this venture which finally culminated in the launch of "From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom". For sure, me and my family had a very proud and fulfilling day on 10th May 2013.


It was a jam packed and interactive audience, an inspiring chief guest speech, a supportive publisher, a first time author and GOD who made this day very special for me.

What are Chit Funds

Introduction
"Chit" is a Hindi word which basically means "Receipt" in the form of a small piece of paper. The formal English meaning closest to this is "a short letter or a note". A Chit fund is a kind of savings scheme practiced in India. For someone seeking a loan, it is a source of costly, but convenient, credit. For the small saver, it is an option that enforces monthly investment discipline. And for the un banked rural investor, it is a crucial step towards financial inclusion.
